Introduction
About this manual
This manual is intended for anyone who is responsible for integrating the Fiery X3e
into a business environment that includes networked personal computers. After setting
up the Fiery X3e and client workstations, individual users can print to the Fiery X3e as
a high-performance PostScript or PCL printer.
This manual describes how to set up network servers and clients to use the Fiery X3e
and how to install user software and set up printing from Microsoft Windows and
Apple Mac OS computers. For general information on using the copier, your
computer, your software, or your network, see the manuals that accompany those
products.
N OTE : The term “Windows 9x” is used in this manual to represent Windows 98.
The Fiery X3e includes support for the Fiery WebTools™ and software for
Command WorkStation, which allow an operator to manage all jobs sent to the
Fiery X3e. Although it may not be the case at all sites, the documentation for this
product assumes the presence of an operator who controls and manages jobs sent by
users from remote workstations.
Any additional connectivity or administrative features specific to the copier are
described in the Printing Guide or the Release Notes.
About this manual
This manual covers the following topics:
• Basic configuration of the Fiery X3e to support printing over AppleTalk, TCP/IP,
and IPX (Novell) networks
• Administering network printing
xii
Introduction
• Configuring Novell and Microsoft Windows NT 4.0/2000 servers and UNIX
systems to provide Fiery X3e printing services
• Using the Fiery X3e in mixed network environments
N OTE : The network guidelines in this book are not intended to replace the services of
an experienced network engineer.
This manual is organized as follows:
• Chapter 1 illustrates the supported network configurations and shows the network
connectors on the Fiery X3e.

Chapter 1:
Connecting to
the Network
This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the Fiery X3e, and includes diagrams
that refer you to other chapters or other manuals for completing your installation.
Check those references to find the information you need quickly.
When the Fiery X3e is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the Fiery X3e supports the following
network protocols:
• AppleTalk
• TCP/IP (the lpd, nbt, and http protocols)
TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd
protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports
Windows (SMB) printing. The port 9100 is the printer server port number to
publish print connections between the print server and a remote computer. The http
protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets. The http
protocol also supports IPP printing.
• IPX/SPX (Novell)
IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange.
These protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each
other) are supported on Mac OS, Windows, and UNIX platforms and can run
concurrently on the same cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print
through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned.
When you add the Fiery X3e to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator
has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.

Connecting to the Network
Installation can be performed by a network or printing administrator. The stages of a
successful installation are:
•
Physically connecting the Fiery X3e to a functioning network
Prepare a network node for the Fiery X3e—obtain cable, route it to the location where
the Fiery X3e will be installed, and attach the cable to the network interface. For
details, see page 3-8.
•
Configuring the network server
When network servers are required, you need to configure those servers to provide
client access to the Fiery X3e as a PCL or PostScript printer. For information on
configuring network servers in Windows and UNIX network environments, see
Chapter 2.
•
Setting up the Fiery X3e
Configure the Fiery X3e for your particular printing and network environment.
First read Chapter 2, and then see subsequent chapters for details.
•
Preparing client workstations for printing
Install the files needed for printing, install additional user software, and connect the
client to the Fiery X3e over the network. These steps are described in the User Software
Installation Guide, and some information is also provided in Chapter 2.
•
Administering the Fiery X3e
Monitor and maintain system performance and troubleshoot problems that arise.
For details, see Chapter 7 of this manual and the Job Management Guide.

Windows
At each computer from which users print to
the Fiery X3e:
• Install the appropriate printer files and connect
to one or more queues.
• Install Fiery® utilities and an Internet browser
for those computers that will use them.
• Verify the Fiery X3e in the list of printers and
run a test print.

The diagrams on the following pages show typical systems you can use to print and run
Fiery software from remote workstations. Find the page with your preferred platform
and network type, and then look up the setup procedures referenced in the “Key to
setup” in the upper-left corner of each diagram.
The diagrams describe devices that use the supported networking protocols. They are
logical diagrams and are not intended to describe the physical arrangement (topology)
of devices on the network. A variety of physical arrangements is possible with each
logical arrangement. For example, twisted pair Ethernet networks commonly use a star
configuration around a hub, rather than a bus arrangement. The design of physical
networks is beyond the scope of this manual.
If your network uses more than one protocol or more than one type of workstation,
combine the setups listed for each component of your system. Multiple protocols
(shown in the diagrams as parallel lines) can run on the same cable. A solid connection
from the Fiery X3e with an arrow indicates that other supported network types can be
operational at the same time.
The protocols used in these diagrams are indicated as follows:

Ethernet connection
For Ethernet connections, the Fiery X3e supports cabling, defined as Category 5 for
use with 100BaseT; or as Category 3, Category 4, or Category 5 for use with 10BaseT.
The cable uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector that plugs into the RJ-45 socket on the
Fiery X3e.
N OTE : The 100BaseT type supported by the Fiery X3e is 100BaseTX, also known as
Fast Ethernet. If an Ethernet hub is used, it must be a 100BaseTX hub. The term
“100BaseT” is used to refer to 100BaseTX.
TO
CONNECT TO THE
•
E THERNET
BOARD
Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector on the back of the Fiery X3e.
You must use a Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable network cable for 100BaseT.
Parallel cable connection
In addition to receiving print jobs over Ethernet or Token Ring, the Fiery X3e can
accept print jobs from a Windows computer through its high-speed parallel port. This
connection is advantageous for portable computers and for workstations on dedicated
networks using protocols other than AppleTalk, TCP/IP, or IPX.
The parallel port connection can be active at the same time as the network ports.
N OTE : The parallel port cannot be used to connect the Fiery X3e with
Command WorkStation or other Fiery utilities.
TO

Chapter 2:
Setting up
Network Servers
This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network
servers—Novell NetWare servers and Windows NT 4.0/2000 servers—that share
printing to the Fiery X3e. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX or TCP/IP
protocols for communicating with the Fiery X3e. In addition, it includes guidelines for
setting up direct communication from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations or
UNIX workstations, where a network server is optional. This chapter also outlines the
requirements for users to print to the Fiery X3e and run Fiery utilities and Fiery
WebTools.
The Fiery X3e can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare, Windows NT 4.0/2000,
and AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent directly from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP
or UNIX workstations. Because AppleShare servers require no special configuration,
they are not discussed in this chapter, except for use in a Windows NT 4.0/2000
environment (see “Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP”
in the following section).
If your network is based on Windows NT 4.0/2000, proceed to the following section.
For information on UNIX workstations, proceed to page 2-16.
Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP network with
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP
When a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer is configured to connect to the
Fiery X3e using TCP/IP, it can print directly to the Fiery X3e. If the computer shares
the printer over the network, it is acting as a print server to Windows 9x/Me and
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP clients. Client computers print to the Fiery X3e by
printing to the Windows NT 4.0/2000 print server. You can then monitor and control
printing at the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server computer.
Typical system combinations are:
• Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000 Server; clients running
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation and Windows 9x/Me
• Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation and clients
running Windows 9x/Me
2
2-2
Setting up Network Servers
With TCP/IP protocols loaded, you can run Fiery utilities and WebTools from a
Windows computer.
The Windows NT 4.0/2000 server can also use AppleTalk protocols to print to the
Fiery X3e as an alternative to TCP/IP.
N OTE : When you create a printer to share with AppleTalk users, do not “capture” the
printer. Capturing the printer forces all users to print to the server, rather than directly
to the printer. If you capture the printer, Fiery X3e print connections will not appear
in the Mac OS Chooser.
Tips for experts—Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP with TCP/IP
Setting up printing from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP using TCP/IP protocols is
similar to setting up UNIX workstations with TCP/IP. When TCP/IP network
connections are made from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations, note
the following:
•
Make sure you have a valid IP address for the Fiery X3e and any workstations that will
print to it or run the Fiery utilities.
•
In Fiery X3e Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address for the Fiery X3e.
You can enter these addresses manually or use DHCP or BOOTP protocols to assign
them dynamically.
•
Make sure the Fiery X3e name and address are listed in a domain name server (DNS) or
hosts name database used by your system.
•
Make sure the system host table includes the correct internal name for the Fiery X3e
as a remote printer.
For more information, see page 2-17.
•
For Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP, install the appropriate printer driver files (PCL or
PostScript) on the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server.
For more information, see the User Software Installation Guide.
•
Repeat the installation for all users who print to the Fiery X3e.
Each server and workstation running the Fiery utilities with TCP/IP also needs the
TCP/IP protocol and the Fiery utility software.
2
2-3
Configuring a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server to communicate with
the Fiery X3e
To configure a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server to communicate with the Fiery X3e,
follow these general steps. More detail is provided in subsequent sections in this
chapter and in your Microsoft documentation.
•
Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the server and configure it with an IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway.
•
Enter the host name of the Fiery X3e in the host database used by your system (see
page 2-4).
•
Perform Fiery X3e Setup.
•
On the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, create a printer for each Fiery X3e print
connection, install the appropriate printer drivers, and (optionally) share the printer
on the network (see page 2-4).
•
Enter the host name and remote printer name of the Fiery X3e in the printer
connection. For more information, see page 2-17.
•
If the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server is also a workstation, install Fiery utilities (see
the User Software Installation Guide).
Adding the Fiery X3e to the TCP/IP network
If your TCP/IP network consists of Windows NT 4.0/2000 servers, and
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP clients, follow the procedures in this section. If the
network also includes UNIX workstations, see the procedures on page 2-17.

2-4
TO
ADD THE F IERY
WITH A W INDOWS
1.
X3 E TO A TCP/IP NETWORK
NT 4.0/2000 SERVER
Register the IP address of the Fiery X3e in the host name database used
by your system.
For installations that do not have a network administrator or central host name
database, add the Fiery X3e to the hosts file on the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server.
Also add it to the hosts file on any workstations that have TCP/IP loaded and will use
the Fiery utilities.
The Windows NT 4.0/2000 hosts file provides compatibility with the UNIX hosts
file. The hosts file is used as a local Domain Name Services (DNS) equivalent. It has
the same format as the /etc/hosts file on UNIX servers. The format of the hosts
entry is:
IP Address<TAB>host name<TAB>#comments
where <TAB> indicates that you press the Tab key.
To determine the IP address and server name of your system, print a Configuration
page (see page page 7-8).
N OTE : If the Fiery X3e has already been defined in an /etc/hosts file or equivalent host
name database on a UNIX workstation on your network, we recommend you use the
same host name here as you used for the name of the remote printer in the
/etc/printcap file.
2.
Perform Fiery X3e Setup to support TCP/IP printing.
Enter the options in Protocol Setup (IP address of the Fiery X3e, subnet mask, and
gateway address).
Installing the Fiery X3e as a shared printer
The first step in creating a printer is installing the printer driver files, which give your
applications access to printer features. You can use the installation instructions in the
User Software Installation Guide for every workstation that will print directly and
independently to the Fiery X3e. However, if you are an administrator running a
Windows NT 4.0/2000 server or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer, you can also
create a printer and share it with clients on the network. This allows clients who do not
have permission to establish an independent network connection to the Fiery X3e to
print through the server.
2
2-5
You can specify sharing of the printer during installation of the Fiery X3e printer files.
If you have not yet installed the Fiery X3e printer files on the Windows NT 4.0/2000
print server computer, do so now, following the instructions in the User Software
Installation Guide. During installation, enter the information necessary to share the
Fiery X3e.
If you have already installed the Fiery X3e printer files on the computer you are using
as a Windows NT 4.0/2000 print server, see your Windows documentation for
information about sharing the Fiery X3e.
If more than one Fiery X3e print connection is published (for example, if both the
Print queue and the Hold queue are published), you may want to create a printer for
each print connection, so you and other users can print to each connection directly.
When prompted to specify the printer name, enter a name that indicates the Fiery X3e
print connection.
Configuring clients of a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server
Each client of a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server is already using a network protocol to
communicate with the server. Each client can print to the Fiery X3e if it has been
shared by a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer.
In that case, the client does not have to use the same network protocol to connect to
the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server as the server uses to communicate with the
Fiery X3e.

For Windows 9x/Me clients: Before printing, double-click the Windows NT 4.0/2000
server icon in the Network Neighborhood window, and then double-click the
printer name.
You are prompted to set up the printer. When you choose to set it up, the Add Printer
Wizard dialog box appears. Follow the procedures in the User Software Installation
Guide.
•
For Windows NT 4.0 Workstation clients: Before printing, connect to the print server
computer and select the Fiery X3e. Right-click and choose Open.
When prompted, click Yes to have Windows set up the printer.
2
2-6
•
For Windows 2000/XP clients: Before printing, install the printer driver with the User
Software CD and configure the port.
After clients have selected the printer, they can choose it from the Print Setup, Page
Setup, or Print dialog box of their application. Clients can change printing options for
their own job, but printer properties appear dimmed, and unavailable for changing.
When a client chooses Print, the job is transmitted to the Windows NT 4.0/2000
print server, and from there to the selected print connection on the Fiery X3e. The job
is listed in the Print Manager on the client workstation, and the administrator can
track it in the Fiery X3e window in the Print Manager on the Windows NT 4.0/2000
print server.
Configuring Windows computers without a Windows NT 4.0 server
If your network does not have a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, Windows 9x/Me and
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations can still print to the Fiery X3e. This method
of printing is called Windows, or SMB printing. In this type of network environment,
computers running Windows 9x/Me and Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstations
operate in a peer-to-peer environment and communicate directly with the Fiery X3e
when users send print jobs.
Many of the prerequisites for setting up printing through a Windows NT 4.0/2000
server also apply to setting up Windows printing where a server is not present. The
prerequisites are summarized in the following list. More details are available in your
Microsoft documentation.
•
Print a Configuration page (see page 7-8).
Use the information on this page to determine the current Fiery X3e settings.
•
Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the computer (for Windows 9x/Me, load File and
printer sharing for Microsoft Network. For Windows 2000/XP load Client for Microsoft
Networks).
•
Verify the Workgroup name of the computer in the Windows Network control panel.
Make sure the Workgroup name is the same as the one listed in Fiery X3e Setup.
•
For Windows 9x/Me, in the File and printer sharing for Microsoft Network Properties
dialog box, specify Automatic or Enabled for Browse Master, and select Yes for
LM Announce.
2
2-7
•
For Windows 2000/XP, in the Client for Microsoft Networks Properties dialog box,
configure the computer to allow file sharing, and then restart the computer.
•
Ping the Fiery X3e to verify TCP/IP communication is successful (see page 2-18).
The NetWise™ features built into the Fiery X3e support the following network
operating environments:
• NetWare 4.x or 5.x—NDS (Novell Directory Services)
• Servers running NetWare 4.x or 5.x in bindery emulation mode
For Ethernet-based networks, the IPX/SPX protocol is supported.
N OTE : Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the presence and active
cooperation of the Novell network administrator. You must have administrator
privileges on the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.
The term “bindery server” is used to refer to a Novell file server running NetWare 4.x
or 5.x in emulation mode. The term “NDS” is used to describe components of a
NetWare operating system running NetWare 4.x or 5.x in native mode.
NetWare clients print to the Fiery X3e through the Novell network server. Server setup
and client network setup are outlined in this chapter, client printing setup is described
in the User Software Installation Guide, and printing is described in the Printing Guide.
The Fiery X3e can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over Ethernet network
topologies. During Fiery X3e Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used
for communication between the Fiery X3e and network servers. Frame type refers to
the format of a communications packet; frame types are specified in a startup file when
the NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.

2-8
Tips for experts—IPX networks
Setting up the Fiery X3e is similar to setting up any other PostScript printer
on the network.
The Fiery X3e with IPX connections has the following characteristics:
•
A minimum connection to the Fiery X3e consists of a NetWare file server, a NetWare
print server, and a NetWare queue.
•
A single directory tree and up to eight bindery servers can be configured
simultaneously.
•
The Fiery X3e looks for print jobs on one NetWare print server per bindery server.
•
Each print server can store jobs for any print connection on the Fiery X3e.
Overview of IPX printing to the Fiery X3e
NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, which are storage areas for
print jobs. When a client on a remote computer decides to print, the job is directed to
a print queue on the NetWare file server and spooled to the NetWare server disk,
freeing up the client workstation.
You must give the NetWare queue names a specific extension corresponding to the
Fiery X3e print connection, as follows:
_print
_hold
_direct
N OTE : These extension names must be in English and in all lowercase letters.
You do not need to rerun Setup when you add or remove a NetWare queue; however,
you should restart the Fiery X3e after you create or remove a queue.
2
2-9
When the Fiery X3e is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the NetWare
server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are automatically transferred
over the network to the matching connection on the Fiery X3e. For example, jobs
from the NetWare queue with the _print extension are sent to the Fiery X3e Print
queue. While a job is processed and printed, a record of the job is being created. You
can access the Job Log containing these records at any time.
The following sections explain how to set up a NetWare file server so networked users
can print to the Fiery X3e from their workstations, and the Fiery X3e can obtain print
jobs from the NetWare server.
For each NetWare file server that you configure, follow these general steps. More detail
is provided in subsequent sections and in your NetWare documentation.
• Make sure the server is connected to a functioning IPX network.
• Log in as the Supervisor on a PC connected to the NetWare file server.
• For NetWare 4.x installations, set up an NDS connection (see page 2-11).
• For NetWare 4.x in emulation mode, set the bindery context (see page 2-11).
• For NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation, set up a file server, print server, and print
queue for the Fiery X3e (see page 2-12).
With bindery services, you can route all Fiery X3e print jobs through the same
NetWare file server, or you can configure more than one file server to handle
Fiery X3e jobs.
The functions you perform on the Novell server, the Fiery X3e, and the client
workstation are summarized in the following tables. The first table applies to NDS
connections, and the second to bindery connections. Complete the operations in the
left column, then the center column, then the right column.

2
2-11
Setting up an NDS connection
In NDS, all NetWare entities (objects) are organized in a hierarchical tree structure.
Objects have a name, properties, and a context that defines the location of the object
in the directory tree. For the Fiery X3e, you are mainly concerned with defining a
printer, a print server object, and one or more print queue objects. Objects are created
in NetWare administrator programs such as PCONSOLE, NETADMIN, or NetWare
Administrator.
The top-level tree object is known as the [Root] object. The name of the [Root] object
is also the name of the tree. Below the [Root] are other objects: either containers
(which consist of other objects) or leaf objects (which do not contain other objects).
Access to objects is controlled by rights that are defined as properties of each object.
Rights are established by network administrators.
Setting the NetWare 4.x bindery context
You can connect only one directory tree to the Fiery X3e. If you need to connect
additional NetWare 4.x servers, you can do so by using bindery emulation. You can
connect up to eight bindery servers to the Fiery X3e.
N OTE : The file server you select must not be in the same tree as the one you selected in
NDS Setup.
In order to set up the NetWare 4.x server in bindery emulation mode for printing to
the Fiery X3e, the network administrator must do the following:
• Determine the Directory Services path to the container in which the print server and
the print queue for the Fiery X3e will be created.
The container defines the “bindery context” for your network structure.
• Edit the network startup file to set the bindery context.
• Activate the new bindery context.
2
2-12
Setting up a NetWare print queue for bindery
For NetWare 4.x in emulation mode, the NetWare print server and print queue for
the Fiery X3e are created and configured from NetWare Print Console (PCONSOLE),
a NetWare utility that is stored in the NetWare PUBLIC directory.
As with NDS, you can create several NetWare entities on a Novell server, and then you
can select them in Network Setup (see page 4-17).
Setting up NetWare Windows clients for printing
Before setting up client workstations for printing, perform Network Setup (see
page 4-7), and verify that the settings reflect the entities you created in the NetWare
administrator utilities (see page 2-9).
N OTE : For printing to the Fiery X3e, connect all Windows clients to a NetWare server
and permit them to connect to the Netware print server or servers on which you
defined a NetWare print queue for the Fiery X3e.
After the Novell server and the Fiery X3e have been set up, client setup consists of:
• Installing the networking protocol, binding it to the network adapter card, and
permitting the client to log in to the NetWare file server.
On Windows 9x/Me workstations, loading both the IPX/SPX-compatible protocol
and the Client for NetWare Networks from the Network Control Panel.
On Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations, installing Client Services for
NetWare. Use the CSNW option in the Control Panel to set printing options and
specify a preferred NetWare server.
• Setting up the Fiery X3e as a PostScript printer by installing a PostScript printer
driver and the Fiery X3e PPD (PostScript printer description).
• Adding a network port and connecting the workstation to one or more NetWare
queues that have been defined for the Fiery X3e.
• Installing Fiery X3e software.
For details, see the User Software Installation Guide.
2
2-13
The Fiery X3e supports printing over a NetWare 5.x network running either the
TCP/IP protocols or the IPX protocol. For pure IP printing, the Fiery X3e takes
advantage of features in NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services). For IPX printing,
the Fiery X3e supports the PServer service in Bindery emulation or through NDS
(Novell Directory Services). For more information on IPX-based printing, see
“Fiery X3e on a NetWare 4.x or 5.x network” on page 2-7.
N OTE : Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the presence and active
cooperation of the Novell network administrator. You must have administrator
privileges on the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.
NDPS is not like earlier queue-based versions of NetWare printing. Instead, you use an
NDPS Manager and a Printer Agent, which control the tasks previously handled by a
print queue, print server, and spooler. You can also make the printer driver available for
clients to download from Windows 9x/Me and Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP
computers.
During Fiery X3e Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used for
communication between the Fiery X3e and network servers. Frame type refers to the
format of a communications packet; frame types are specified in a startup file when the
NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.
Tips for experts—NetWare 5.x networks
Setting up the Fiery X3e in an NDPS environment is similar to setting up any other
PostScript printer on the network. Refer to the following information when setting up
the Fiery X3e in such an environment:
•
Make sure you have a valid IP address for the Fiery X3e and for any workstations that
will print to it or run Fiery utilities.
•
In Fiery X3e Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address for Fiery X3e. You can enter these manually or use DHCP or BOOTP protocols to
assign the addresses dynamically.
•
Bidirectional communication features in NDPS are not supported on the Fiery X3e.
2
2-14
Before you begin
The following procedure assumes NDPS has been installed during NetWare 5.x
installation and that a Broker is running on the server. Unless you have manually
unloaded the Broker, it loads and runs when you install NDPS. Make sure you are
using the latest NetWare 5.x service pack and Novell gateway. Finally, create an NDPS
Manager. For more information, see your NetWare documentation.
In Fiery X3e Setup, make sure you have enabled TCP/IP (page 4-11) and LPD
printing (page 4-17) on the Fiery X3e. You can ping the Fiery X3e (page 2-18) to
verify that TCP/IP communication is successful.
Setting up the Fiery X3e printer driver
You first need to create a directory for Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP or a folder for
Windows 9x/Me in the NetWare server for NDPS to install the corresponding printer
driver files from the User Software CD.

When a UNIX workstation is configured with the lpd protocol and connected to the
Fiery X3e over a TCP/IP network, it can print directly to the Fiery X3e.
Setting up UNIX workstations requires an administrator with root privileges. After the
initial configuration, UNIX users simply submit print jobs to a named printer.
The job management tools, along with the other Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools,
are unavailable on the UNIX platform. A Windows or Mac OS computer on the same
network as the UNIX computer that is set up to use TCP/IP for printing to the
Fiery X3e can use the job management tools to manage print jobs that originate from
all workstations on the network.
Tips for experts—UNIX workstations
Setting up the Fiery X3e in a UNIX environment has the same requirements as setting
up any printer or new device:
•
A distinct IP address is required for the Fiery X3e as well as for each workstation on
the network.
•
A name must be selected for the Fiery X3e that goes with the IP address.
•
The IP address of the Fiery X3e must be registered for the network in a host database,
and also on the Fiery X3e itself.
•
At least one print connection (Print or Hold) must be published.
2
2-17
The following information applies especially to the Fiery X3e:
•
The Fiery X3e is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols.
•
The Fiery X3e has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with
it successfully.
For details, see the following section.
Important note about the remote printer name
Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for the remote printer (or rp in the
/etc/printcap file) in configuring the Fiery X3e must be one of the following:
print
hold
The remote printer name is also used when setting up your Windows NT 4.0/2000
Server or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation to connect to the Fiery X3e over
TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your Windows NT 4.0/2000
printer, as the “Name of printer or print queue on that (lpd host) server” in the Add
LPR Compatible Printer dialog box.
For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue
Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor dialog
box.
Setting up the Fiery X3e on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X3e, must have a
unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to
obtain an address for the Fiery X3e. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print
directly to the Fiery X3e as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0/2000
server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the Fiery X3e spools jobs
and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between
a workstation and the Fiery X3e. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference
in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.

Type the Fiery X3e IP address assigned in Fiery X3e Network Setup.
After the Fiery X3e is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the name you gave
to the Fiery X3e:
ping <hostname>
The server should respond with a message such as:
Reply from <IP address> ...
Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output from the IP address.
To stop the output, type Control-C. You can use the ping command at any time.

TO
PRINT TO THE
F IERY X3 E
•
On a UNIX system running SunOS 4.x or other BSD-based variant, use the lpr command
to send a job to the Fiery X3e.
•
On a UNIX system running Solaris 2.x or any System V implementation of UNIX, use
the lp command to send a job to the Fiery X3e.
•
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP users with the TCP/IP protocol loaded can send print jobs to
the Fiery X3e from their applications or from a command prompt.
When Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP users print from applications, they can set print
options with the driver but not from the UNIX command line.
Managing print jobs
UNIX network administrators can use UNIX utilities for viewing the list of jobs, and
for printing and removing jobs that are spooled on UNIX servers. If the network
includes a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstation that has TCP/IP protocols loaded,
you can use Command WorkStation or Fiery Downloader™ to download fonts and
files.
You can also use the job management tools to manage jobs from remote workstations.
For more information, see the Job Management Guide.
Even without the Fiery utilities, you can:
• Set up the Fiery X3e to print a log of printed jobs automatically after every 55 jobs
(see Job Log Setup on page 4-48).
• Print a Job Log manually at any time from the Command WorkStation Functions
menu (see the Job Management Guide).

3-1
Chapter 3:
Preparing for
Fiery X3e Setup
To prepare for printing at your site, you must do some initial Fiery X3e configuration,
or Setup, to specify the network environment and the kind of printing you will do.
Before you perform Setup, you must decide the levels of access you will implement for
your site. Administrators and operators must also understand how Fiery X3e system
software is structured in order to configure and use the Fiery X3e system correctly.
When you configure the Fiery X3e during Setup, you (as system administrator)
implement a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections,
passwords, and access to WebTools. The level of control you implement can range
from minimum to moderate to maximum—or none at all.
• Minimum control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local
network can control all printing and Fiery X3e functions. Although there may be an
administrator or operator charged with certain duties, all users have equal access to
the system and job management tools.
• Maximum control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment
where an administrator or operator controls the job flow and all printing; jobs sent
by users are spooled (stored) to the Fiery X3e disk until the operator decides it is
time to print them. In addition, only the administrator and operator have access to
job management tools. This is the recommended level of control.
N OTE : The term “job management tools” is used in this manual to refer to
Command WorkStation, Fiery Spooler™, and Fiery WebSpooler™.
Fiery X3e print connections
The Fiery X3e supports three print connections: Hold queue, Print queue, and Direct
connection. These print connections can be enabled, or “published,” to users on the
network when you configure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly
checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and Direct connection give remote
users more direct access to the Fiery X3e than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not
publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where maximum
control is desired.
3
3-2
Preparing for Fiery X3e Setup
In addition, you can enable the Printed queue, which is a storage area for the most
recent jobs from the Print queue. The Printed queue makes it convenient to reprint
those jobs. In Setup, you can enable the Printed queue and specify the maximum
number of jobs retained in the queue (see page 4-6). Reprinting jobs in the Printed
queue requires the job management tools.
To use the Fiery utilities and WebTools, you must enable at least one of the print
connections.
Hold queue
Jobs sent to the Hold queue are spooled to the Fiery X3e hard disk for printing at a
later time or for reprinting. Because the Hold queue is a storage place, jobs sent to it
cannot proceed through the printing process until the operator intervenes using the
job management tools (see the Job Management Guide).
Print queue
This is the standard Fiery X3e queue. Jobs sent to the Print queue are processed and
printed in the order they are received. Jobs prioritized by an operator with the job
management tools and jobs sent via the Direct connection can take priority over jobs
sent to the Print queue.
Direct connection
The Direct connection transmits jobs directly to the Fiery X3e, but only when the
Fiery X3e is Idle. If the Fiery X3e is busy, the job remains at the user workstation until
the Fiery X3e is ready. The job is then processed as soon as the previous job is finished
and before the next queued job is processed.
N OTE : The Direct connection is not supported for LPR printing.
Jobs sent to the Direct connection are not stored on the Fiery X3e hard disk, and
cannot be selected for reprinting, moving, or deletion. Therefore, the Direct
connection provides a measure of security for sensitive files. Jobs sent to the Direct
connection do appear in the Job Log, for accounting purposes.
N OTE : To download fonts to the Fiery X3e, you must publish the Direct connection.
3
3-3
Passwords
You can implement passwords as a means of controlling access to Fiery X3e functions.
The Fiery X3e allows you to set the following passwords in Setup:
• Administrator—remotely from WebSetup or Command WorkStation, or locally
from the Control Pane
• Operator—from Command WorkStation or Fiery WebSetup
N OTE : By default, no passwords are set on the Fiery X3e. If you do not specifically
set passwords, all users will have administrator privileges, which include access to
important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords), and job control.
We strongly recommend that you set at least an Administrator password to protect
the Fiery X3e from random or accidental changes to Setup.
Administrator privileges
Administrator control, which confers control of Setup, is the highest level of control,
since the person who has access to Setup can control the printing and job management
environment. Administrator privileges include publishing print connections, setting
passwords, deleting fonts, controlling print jobs from the job management tools,
overriding job settings, clearing the Fiery X3e of all job data, performing calibration,
defining default color profiles, and setting default values for print options.
When performing a function from the Fiery X3e Control Panel that prompts you for
the Administrator password, you must enter it promptly. Otherwise, the Fiery X3e
Control Panel returns to Idle, and you must start over again.
Operator privileges
Operator control includes control of print jobs from the job management tools,
including the ability to override job settings.
Guest privileges (no password)
No password is needed for a user to log in as a Guest from the job management tools.
A Guest can view the status of active jobs but cannot make changes to jobs or to the
Fiery X3e state.
3
3-4
WebTools
The Fiery X3e supports Internet or intranet access with WebTools from Windows and
Mac OS computers. To enable use of WebTools, you must do the following in Setup:
• Enable TCP/IP.
• Set an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the Fiery X3e.
• Enable Web Services.
For more information, see Chapter 6.
You can set passwords to control access to WebTools features. If you do not specifically
set these passwords, all users have access to all WebTools functions (see page 3-3).
WebTools include Status™, WebSpooler, WebLink™, WebScan™ WebDownloader™,
WebSetup™, and Installer™.
Status
The Status WebTool provides you with current information on the jobs processing and
printing on the Fiery X3e. It is not affected by passwords. For more information, see
the Printing Guide.
WebSpooler
The WebSpooler interface is very similar to that of Command WorkStation. It allows
remote users to preview, manipulate, reorder, reprint, and delete jobs currently
spooling, processing, or printing on the Fiery X3e. It also allows the administrator and
operator to edit and merge jobs (Thumbnails A and B) and view, print, or delete the
Job Log.
WebSpooler access can be controlled by setting an Operator password in Setup. If you
set a password, only users with that password can manipulate jobs from WebSpooler. A
user who does not have the password can still log in to WebSpooler as a Guest with
view-only access (see page 3-3). For more information, see the Job Management Guide.
3
3-5
WebLink
WebLink provides all users with a link to an address on the Internet. To change the
WebLink Internet address, see page 6-3. This function requires the Administrator
password, if one has been set (see “Passwords” on page 3-3).
N OTE : If you do not set the Administrator password, any user can change the WebLink
address, which affects all users. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you set an
Administrator password.
WebScan
With WebScan, you can retrieve scanned documents from a computer on the Internet
or your organization’s intranet. It is not affected by passwords. For more information,
see the Printing Guide.
WebDownloader
WebDownloader allows you to print PostScript, EPS, PDF, and TIFF files directly to
the Fiery X3e without first opening the file in an application. It is not affected by
passwords.
WebSetup
WebSetup allows you to view and modify Fiery X3e Setup options from a remote
workstation. This function requires an Administrator password. For more information,
see Chapter 5.
N OTE : WebSetup is supported on Windows computers only.
Installer
The Installer WebTool allows users to download installers for printer drivers directly
from the Fiery X3e. It is not affected by passwords. For more information, see the
User Software Installation Guide.

Control level scenarios
Typical scenarios of access and control, ranging from minimum control to maximum
control, are described in this section. Choose the scenario that best matches your site
requirements, and refer to the corresponding number in the following table for
guidance on how to configure your system for those requirements.
N OTE : We strongly recommend that you set at least an Administrator password to
prevent unauthorized changes to system settings.
1.
No designated administrator or operator (Minimum control—not recommended)
All users have equal access to all system functions including Setup, clearing the
Fiery X3e, deleting printer fonts, setting the WebLink address, performing calibration,
printing to all Fiery X3e print connections, and managing all jobs from the job
management tools.
2.
An administrator but no operator
Only an administrator can perform Setup, calibration, and other administrator
functions, but all other system functions are accessible to all users, including printing
to all Fiery X3e print connections, and managing all jobs from the job management
tools.

About Setup
Setup configures the Fiery X3e to communicate with other devices and manage print
jobs. You must perform Setup the first time you turn on the Fiery X3e after new
system software is loaded, or any time Server software is reinstalled. An initial Setup
using default settings is adequate for allowing users to print to the Fiery X3e and use
the WebTools. When your network or user printing environment changes, you can
change Setup options accordingly.
3
3-8
The first time you perform Setup, you must use the Fiery X3e Control Panel.
Configure, at a minimum, Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup, in that
sequence. After the initial Setup, you can change Setup options from the Control Panel
(page 4-2) or Command WorkStation. Most Setup options can be set using any of
these methods.
If you do not configure the remaining Setups, the Fiery X3e uses default settings. You
need to make settings appropriate for the printing environment at your site.
Network server setup requirements
For Novell, and Windows NT 4.0/2000 (using TCP/IP) networks, you must configure
the network servers for printing to the Fiery X3e before you configure Fiery X3e
network settings in Setup. For chapter references to information about network server
Setup, see the diagrams in Chapter 1.
To configure network settings in Setup, you must have a live network connection, so
the Fiery X3e can query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues.
Whenever the configuration of the Fiery X3e, the copier, or the network itself changes
at your site, you can alter individual settings to correspond to the changed
environment. Changing network or port settings may require that you make changes
to other Setup options, as well.
N OTE : You must configure the Fiery X3e with the correct Windows NT/2000
domain name. This is especially important for Windows printing, also known as
SMB printing.
N OTE : The Fiery X3e does not support the Windows 2000 Active Directory Service.
When you use the Fiery X3e in a Windows 2000 server environment, assign the
Fiery X3e to a Domain or Workgroup.
Ensuring the copier connection
Complete the following steps before you configure the Fiery X3e and the workstations
that will print to the Fiery X3e. A service technician will have performed some initial
installation.

Setup is required the first time the Fiery X3e is turned on after new system software is
loaded. In this initial Setup, you (or the service technician who loads the software)
choose the language for Fiery X3e Control Panel menus and messages. If you do not
configure a particular Setup option, the Fiery X3e uses default settings. Make sure the
settings are appropriate for the printing environment at your site.
Setup performed from the Control Panel configures the Fiery X3e to communicate
with other devices and manage print jobs sent to it.
Setup provides these groups of options:
• Server Setup to specify system options
• Network Setup to specify all the active network systems that transmit print jobs to
the Fiery X3e
• Printer Setup to specify how print jobs and queues are managed
• PS Setup to specify PostScript settings
• PCL Setup to specify PCL settings
• Color Setup to specify color settings
• Job Log Setup to specify how the Fiery X3e handles its log of printed jobs

Windows computer to the parallel port and print directly to the Fiery X3e.
Port Timeout in Seconds
5–60 [5]
This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. Your setting determines
how long (in seconds) the Fiery X3e waits without receiving data from the parallel port
before deciding that the current job is complete. Until the timeout, the Fiery X3e
cannot receive new jobs through the parallel port, but it can continue to receive
network print jobs.
Ignore EOF Character
Yes/No [Yes]
This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. This option specifies that
the Fiery X3e should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages in a file. This option must be
set to Yes to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal
circumstances, it should be set to No. When this option is set to Yes, the Fiery X3e uses
the parallel port timeout value to determine when the end of the file has been reached.
If you experience printing problems, set this option to No.
N OTE : If you use a PC with Windows XP or Windows 2000, printing over the parallel
port may succeed but you may need to install and use a utility that fixes ECP mode.
Without the fix, ECP mode on those platforms runs very slowly. Contact your

OPTIONS
In the following list of options, default values, where applicable, appear in
square brackets.
RGB Source Profile
EFIRGB/sRGB (PC)/Apple Standard/None [EFIRGB]
The RGB source is the color space used to control color for conversion from monitor
to printed output. EFIRGB is based on the reference points used in the creation of the
Fiery X3e software. sRGB is based on an average of a large number of PC monitors.
Apple Standard is the standard reference point for Apple’s ColorSync software.
4
4-42
Rendering Style
Photographic/Presentation/Abs. Colorimetric/Rel. Colorimetric [Presentation]
The color rendering dictionary (CRD) defines how colors are converted from the RGB
color space to device CMYK. Photographic, designed for images, retains the relative
balance between colors to maintain the overall appearance of the image. Presentation,
designed for bright colors, produces the saturated prints needed for most business
presentations, but handles photographic images the same way as the Photographic
CRD. Absolute Colorimetric provides the closest match to the CMYK device being
simulated, including rendering the paper color as the background. Relative
Colorimetric provides a close match to the CMYK device being simulated, regardless
of the media used.
CMYK Simulation Profile
SWOP-Coated (EFI)/DIC (EFI)/Euroscale (EFI)/None [SWOP-Coated (EFI) in North
America, Euroscale (EFI) elsewhere]
CMYK simulation allows color correction to simulate printed output on a commercial
press, so that the Fiery X3e output can be used for proofing. The SWOP-Coated
standard is used in the United States, DIC in Japan, and Euroscale in Europe. Custom
simulations are user defined and named. The simulations provided with the Fiery X3e
have the designation “EFI” after their names.
If users create and load custom simulations on the Fiery X3e with ColorWise Pro
Tools, these also appear in the list of simulations. A custom simulation can be selected
as the default simulation. For more information about custom simulations, see the
Color Guide.
CMYK Simulation Method
Quick/Full (Source GCR)/Full (Output GCR) [Full (Output GCR)]
Quick simulation assumes that the copier toners match the printer’s inks, and all
changes affect only one color (C, M, Y, or K) at a time. Full (Source GCR) simulation
allows for more flexibility in matching toner to ink and all changes interact to maintain
a better color balance. Full (Output GCR) offers accurate proofing by providing a
colorimetric conversion of all four plates. In this simulation method, the black (K)
plate is mixed into the CMY plates, then reseparated based on the Output profile.

RGB Separation
Output/Simulation [Output]
This option defines how the Fiery X3e processes RGB jobs. Select Output for RGB
jobs that you print to the final output device. Select Simulation to simulate an output
device that is not the device to which you are printing.
Pure Black Text/Graphics
On/Off [On]
The Pure Black Text/Graphics option optimizes black text and line art. The option
also minimizes toner use for documents consisting of both color and black-only pages.
With this option On, black text and line art are printed with black toner only.
With the option Off, black text and line art are printed using all four colors of toner.
For more information, see the Color Guide.
Black Overprint
On/Off [On]
With this option On, black text overprints on colored backgrounds. With this option
Off, black text knocks out color backgrounds. Generally this option should be On.
For more information, see the Color Guide.
Spot Color Matching
On/Off [On]
With this option On, the Fiery X3e uses an internal lookup table to print the best
equivalents of PANTONE colors. With this option Off, PANTONE colors are printed
using the CMYK values defined in the original applications. For more information, see
the Color Guide.

communication with the Fiery X3e.
Ignore EOF Character—Available only if Enable Parallel Port is selected, this option
specifies that the Fiery X3e should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages. Select this
option to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal circumstances, this option should not be selected. When this option is selected, the Fiery X3e
uses the parallel port timeout value to determine when the end of the file has
been reached.
Parallel Port Timeout (seconds)—Available only if Enable Parallel Port is selected, this
setting determines how long the Fiery X3e waits without receiving data from the
parallel port before deciding that the current job is complete. Until the timeout, the
Fiery X3e cannot receive new jobs through the parallel port, but it can continue to
receive network print jobs.

select US, or A4 paper if you select Metric.
Print Cover Page—Specify whether the Fiery X3e prints a cover page (job summary) at
the end of each print job. If you choose Yes, each print job is followed by a page
containing the name of the user who sent the job, the document name, the server
name, the time the job was printed, the number of pages printed, and the status of the
job. If a PostScript error occurs and the Print to PS Error option is set to Yes, the Cover
Page lists the PostScript error message instead of the job status.
Allow Courier Substitution—Specify whether to substitute Courier for unavailable
fonts. When you choose Off, jobs requiring fonts unavailable on the Fiery X3e hard
disk generate a PostScript error and do not print. This setting does not apply to PDF
files; font substitution occurs automatically for PDF files.
Print to PS Error—Specify whether the Fiery X3e should print the available portion of
a print job when it encounters a PostScript error. In general, this option should be No.
• When you choose No, the printing of the entire job is canceled when a PostScript
error occurs, but the processed portion of the job and the PostScript error
information are stored on the Fiery X3e. You can view the job and the error
information from the job management tools.
• When you choose Yes, the portion of the job processed before the error occurred
is printed.

Setting passwords
You can set or change the Administrator password for the Fiery X3e. Anyone with the
Administrator password can modify the Setup options, and control the flow and order
of print jobs with the job management tools.
When the Fiery X3e is installed, there is no password. If you do not create an
Administrator password, users are not required to enter a password to modify the
Setup or use the administrator functions in the job management tools. If an
Administrator password has been set previously, you are required to enter it when you
run Setup. Use the up and down arrow buttons to select the characters and the left and
right arrow buttons to move between them (see “Types of Setup screens” on page 4-4).

you are prompted to enter the password again. The new password is effective after you
save changes and restart the Fiery X3e.
7
7-4
Passwords
You can set, change, and remove passwords for the Fiery X3e. These passwords, specific
to the Server process, have different uses than the Windows NT Administrator and
Operator passwords. Keep track of the passwords you set for each.
Administrator—Controls access to Setup; Administrator privileges also include
Operator privileges.
Operator—Controls access to job management functions via the job management
tools.
N OTE : For more information on Fiery X3e passwords and the access privileges they
allow, see page 3-3.
By default, no passwords are set. If you do not specifically set passwords, all users will
have access to important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords) and job
control. We strongly recommend that you set at least an Administrator password to
protect the Fiery X3e from unauthorized changes to Setup.
7
7-5
TO
SET OR CHANGE A PASSWORD
1.
Select the password you want to change.
2.
Type the password in both the Enter New Password and Verify New Password fields.
Passwords are case-sensitive and can be any combination of letters and numbers up to
19 characters. You must enter the password exactly the same way both times. The new
password remains in effect until you change it.
TO
REMOVE A PASSWORD
1.
Select the password you want to delete.
2.
Delete the asterisks (*) in both the Enter New Password and Verify New Password
fields.
If you forget the Administrator password, contact your authorized service
representative to reinstall Fiery X3e system software. This clears the Administrator
password and allows you to set a new one.
The Clear Server command allows you to clear all queued print jobs from the
Fiery X3e—jobs in the Fiery X3e Print, Hold, and Printed queues. Jobs can also be
deleted, either individually or as a group, using the job management tools. Clear Server
also clears all jobs archived on the Fiery X3e hard disk, the index of archived jobs, and
finally, all Fiery FreeForm masters and the index of Fiery FreeForm masters.
To clear the Fiery X3e, scroll through the Setup menu and choose Clear Server. You
are asked to confirm your selection. If the Administrator password has been set, you
are prompted to enter it.

7-6
The E-mail Service feature allows an administrator to import a list of e-mail addresses
to the Fiery X3e by sending e-mail messages to the Fiery X3e.
N OTE : E-mail messages can be sent only from an administrator account.
The Fiery X3e supports the following address books:
• User—a generic address book used primarily for Scan to E-mail. This address book
is used for outgoing e-mail only.
• Admin—includes users with administrative access. Administrative access allows you
to modify the address book, get the current address book from the Fiery X3e, and
cancel or status any print job.
• Print—includes users who have print access. Only users whose e-mail addresses are
in the Print address book are authorized to submit jobs via e-mail to the Fiery X3e.
Unauthorized users receive an e-mail reply that their job was not accepted by the
Fiery X3e for printing.
• Fax—an address book used for Scan to Internet FAX. This address book is used for
outgoing e-mail only.
E-mail Service also allows the administrator to overwrite the address book, append new
addresses, remove addresses, and retrieve current addresses on the Fiery X3e.
When a print job is submitted via e-mail, the Fiery X3e first checks the Print address
book. If the user’s e-mail address does not match any entry in the Print address book,
the job will not print. Instead, the user will receive an e-mail stating that the print job
was not accepted.
The default wildcard character “@” is stored in the Print address book. This allows any
user to print to the Fiery X3e until the administrator adds the first entry in the Print
address book.
7
7-7
The administrator can manage the address books by sending an e-mail to the Fiery X3e
with command codes in the Subject and Message fields. The Fiery X3e responds by
e-mail to these commands with information about each request. When managing
address books, see the following table.

Printing a Configuration page from the Control Panel
The Configuration page lists all the settings in effect in the current Setup.
After you have finished running Setup, print a Configuration page to confirm your
settings. You can also print the Configuration page from Command WorkStation (for
details, see page 5-34).
After you make changes to Setup and choose Exit Setup, the Fiery X3e restarts. This
allows the Fiery X3e to recognize the new settings and display them properly on the
Configuration page. Allow the Fiery X3e to restart and return to Idle before printing a
Configuration page. In particular, the restart is necessary if you specified the DHCP or
BOOTP protocol to obtain an IP address automatically for the Fiery X3e.
Post the current Configuration page near the server for quick reference. Users need the
information on this page, such as the current printer default settings.
Other pages you can print from the Control Panel of the Fiery X3e or from
Command WorkStation include the Test Page, Font List, and Job Log. For
information on these pages, see the Job Management Guide.

The Fiery X3e does not require maintenance. Beyond the obvious requirements of
servicing and maintaining the copier and replenishing consumables, you can improve
the overall performance of your system by doing the following:
•
Make the best use of your network connections
Publish only connections that will be used; the Fiery X3e constantly checks all
published connections, even if they are inactive. Match the NetWare polling interval
and the number of queues or connections to the demand for printing.
Review the published connections by printing a Configuration page. Eliminate the
connections that are not being used. It is easy to re-establish them when needed.
•
Leave less urgent jobs to times when there is less network traffic or printing
You can print recurring print jobs or jobs that are not urgent to the Hold queue.
At low-traffic times, the administrator or a user of the job management tools with
Operator privileges can move (or copy) all the Hold queue jobs to the Print queue
for printing.
7
7-10
•
Reduce unnecessary Two-way Communication
Large numbers of users running Fiery utilities, especially with frequent updates, may
have a significant effect on Fiery X3e performance.
•
Make sure you have adequate disk space on the Fiery X3e
Periodically review the list of jobs in the Hold queue, and the number of jobs being
retained in the Printed queue.
An administrator can print or delete jobs that are in the Printed queue and Hold
queue. Consider printing or offloading inactive jobs. If disk space on the Fiery X3e is
frequently low, you can disable the Printed queue (in Server Setup) and choose not
to publish the Hold queue (in Printer Setup).
To move or remove queued jobs, use the job management tools. When you free up disk
space by removing inactive jobs, new jobs are spooled and printed more quickly.
Generally, you can leave the Fiery X3e and the copier running all the time. This section
describes how to reboot, shut down, and restart the Fiery X3e when necessary.
Shutting down and rebooting the Fiery X3e
You may need to shut down the Fiery X3e for service, or reboot the entire Fiery X3e
system. When you do so, fonts that have been downloaded to the hard disk are not
deleted. Print jobs in the Hold queue, the Printed queue, and jobs that have been
processed but not printed are not deleted; they will be available for printing when you
restart the Fiery X3e.

Novell error code, followed by
a message.
Novell NetWare has reported an error. Command
WorkStation reports the error number and displays a
brief message.
For the most common errors (listed in the following table),
a screen is displayed that allows you to retry the action that
evoked the error, such as adding a server. If that is
not possible, you are prompted to notify the Novell
administrator, who will need to troubleshoot the network.
Consult NetWare Administrator documentation for
further explanation of Novell error codes.
In Network Setup, when you configure the IPX (Novell) connection, the Fiery X3e
queries the network for Novell file servers and trees, and attaches to them temporarily.
If a guest login is enabled, it is used. If not, you are prompted to log in from
Command WorkStation.
If the selected NetWare file server or tree does not have a guest account, or if the guest
account has expired or been disabled by the NetWare supervisor, you are prompted to
notify the IPX (Novell) administrator. In that case, there are two options:
• Enable a guest account on the NetWare server or tree for the purpose of setup.
• Log in with a different account. At the ENTER LOGIN NAME screen, change the default
name (guest) to supervisor or enter another valid login name. When you are
prompted for a password, enter the correct password for the account you named.
A
A-5
Troubleshooting
For any Novell error, make sure:
• Your IPX (Novell) network is connected to the Fiery X3e.
• The NetWare server you are trying to access is running.
• The Novell network has been configured with at least one print server and queue for
the Fiery X3e.
• You have the appropriate permissions and login information, including user name
and password, if necessary.
• The Fiery X3e is configured with the correct frame types for communication with
the desired Novell servers.

Most failures to find a printer on the network are due to conflicting or missing name or
address settings for the Fiery X3e. You must enter names in specific places. The
required names are:
• TCP/IP host name (also known as the DNS name), which is defined by your
organization.
Enter the host name as the Server Name in Fiery X3e Setup.
• Remote printer (internal machine) name. Use one of the following:

Troubleshooting
Cannot connect to Fiery X3e with Fiery utilities
If users cannot connect to the Fiery X3e, check the following:
• Fiery X3e Setup—the appropriate network protocol must be enabled, with the
correct parameters (for example, for TCP/IP, the IP address), and you must publish
either the Print queue or Hold queue.
You can check these settings quickly by printing a Configuration page.
• On the client workstation—the appropriate network protocol(s) must be loaded,
and your Windows directory should contain a configured Efinl.ini file.
Cannot connect to the Fiery X3e with Command WorkStation
If there is a problem connecting to the Fiery X3e, an error message is displayed.
The problem can occur when:
• The Fiery X3e is initially turned on
• The Fiery X3e restarts
• You have changed settings affecting the server address and have not reconfigured the
connection to the server
If you see this problem, try the following solutions, in this order:
• A remote workstation running Fiery utilities or WebTools may be interfering by
obtaining status information. If possible, close the remote application, and try to
connect again.
• Restart the Command WorkStation software and try to connect again.
• Check the configuration of the connection and modify it, if necessary, or delete the
Efinl.ini file and start over with the process of configuring the connection, as
described in the User Software Installation Guide. For Windows9x/Me, the Efinl.ini
file is located in the \WINDOWS directory. For Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP, the
Efinl.ini file is located in the \WINNT directory.
• Restart the Fiery X3e.
For information on other error conditions, see the Job Management Guide.
